NeuroBo to Present Latest Pre-Clinical Data on Cardiometabolic Assets, DA-1241 and DA-1726, Targeting MASH and Obesity, at Scientific Conferences in June

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 30, 2024 –NeuroBo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: NRBO), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the transformation of cardiometabolic diseases, today announced the acceptance of poster presentations for its promising cardiometabolic assets, DA-1241 and DA-1726, at the EASL Congress 2024 and the American Diabetes Association (ADA) 84^th Scientific Sessions in June.

“Having multiple posters selected for presentation at two of the most esteemed scientific forums emphasizes the scientific community’s recognition of the compelling pre-clinical data that we have generated for DA-1241 and DA-1726,” stated Hyung Heon Kim, President and Chief Executive Officer of NeuroBo. “We have completed enrollment for Part 1 of our Phase 2a clinical trial of DA-1241, a novel G-Protein-Coupled Receptor 119 (GPR119) agonist for the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). Additionally, we have recently dosed the first patient in the single ascending dose (SAD) Part 1 of our Phase 1 trial of DA-1726, a novel, dual oxyntomodulin (OXM) analog agonist that functions as a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) and glucagon receptor (GCGR) for the treatment of obesity. DA-1726 has consistently shown, in our preclinical data, to sustain weight loss in diet-induced obese models by decreasing food consumption and boosting energy expenditure. Both programs are progressing well, and we have been able to significantly accelerate the clinical timelines for DA-1726. We currently expect to both dose the first patient in the multiple ascending dose (MAD) Part 2 and read-out top-line data from the SAD Part 1 in the third quarter of 2024, with top-line data from the MAD Part 2 expected in the first quarter of 2025.”

About NeuroBo Pharmaceuticals

NeuroBo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on transforming cardiometabolic diseases. The company is currently developing DA-1241 for the treatment of Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH) and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), and is developing DA-1726 for the treatment of obesity. DA-1241 is a novel G-protein-coupled receptor 119 (GPR119) agonist that promotes the release of key gut peptides GLP-1, GIP, and PYY. In preclinical studies, DA-1241 demonstrated a positive effect on liver inflammation, lipid metabolism, weight loss, and glucose metabolism, reducing hepatic steatosis, hepatic inflammation, and liver fibrosis, while also improving glucose control. DA-1726 is a novel oxyntomodulin (OXM) analogue that functions as a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) and glucagon receptor (GCGR) dual agonist. OXM is a naturally-occurring gut hormone that activates GLP1R and GCGR, thereby decreasing food intake while increasing energy expenditure, thus potentially resulting in superior body weight loss compared to selective GLP1R agonists.
